UCL Biochemical Engineering welcomes new lecturer Michael Thomas

Michael comes from a multidisciplinary background with an MSci in Chemistry and a PhD in Physics from the University of Bristol. In the latter, working with. Professors Robert Richardson and Stephen Mann, he developed new methodologies and scattering approaches to generate and characterise nanomaterial liquid crystal composites. Following this, he entered into the area of disease diagnostics, nanoparticle design and formulation as well as continuing research into self-assembled systems and synchrotron-based scattering techniques during a position as a research associate at Imperial College London in the group of Professor Molly Stevens.
